Compiler: TI's Arm compiler v18.1.0 LTS issue

Unfortunately, I am unable to reproduce the error.  Please show the build options you use when building one C file, and the build options you use when linking.  I think that will allow me to reproduce the problem, but I cannot guarantee it.

Thanks and regards,

-George

I'd appreciate if you would supply the additional information I requested.

Thanks and regards,

-George

Hi George

My Company is having the same problem which we have recreated in a minimal build with a blank project

We are using the TMS570 Arm R5 

I attach the cproject file - which I hope gives the information you need.

If we change the otimisation to 3 from 4 then it builds.

Best Regards

My Company is having the same problem which we have recreated in a minimal build with a blank project

I'd appreciate if you would zip that project up as described in the article Project Sharing, and attach that to your next post.

Thanks and regards,

As suggested

Thank you for sending in a project.  However, when I build it, I get the same errors discussed in your other thread.  I did not see this error ...

This is a different problem.  Until I get a test case which allows me to reproduce it, nothing can be done.

I'd appreciate if you would submit a project which has the vsnprintf problem.  

Thanks and regards,

Apologies - this is not my post and I moved my issue to a completely different one and will stop looking at this thread myself.

Hello Mr Mock.

I apologize for delay I'm answering but I was very busy in the last weeks: the problem is yet present, finally I created a simple project reproducing it but I'm not able to attach anything because the link for attaching a file brings me in another page where there is no way to perform the attachment

After you click Reply, click on the link on the lower right labeled Insert Code, Attach Files and more ...  This brings up another message compose interface that has more features.  Use the paper clip icon to attach the file.  Note only a few file types of files are accepted, including .zip and .txt.  

Thanks and regards,

-George

Hello Vincenzo,

Thank you for the project test case. However, I am unable to build it. I believe there are several dependencies for this project which I need to resolve. Your project relies on a device variant that is unrecognized: Cortex M.AM5728.AM572X_PHYCORE_RDK. I don't recognize this variant either. I assume it is some custom one and you installed some device package in your CCS installation to gain support for it. Where can I get this device package? I believe there are other dependencies. If you can clearly list all these dependencies (BIOS, SDK?), it would be very helpful for us.

Thanks

Hello Ki.

Sorry I missed some explanations but I don't think they will explain the problem because I prepared another version without dependence from AM572X_PHYCORE_RDK and I have the same issue.

In any case let me clarify: currently I'm working with phycoreAM572x that is a SOM based on AM5728. In December Phytec released a TI-RTOS SDK and I used immediately to avoid potential problems coming from different pinmux configuration: for the rest it's the same product and this is true because until December I used a modified version of TI's evmAm572x SDK. And, in any case, Phytec SDK that you can find here :  is based on ti-processor-sdk-rtos-am57xx-evm-04.01.00.06 so it's hard for me to understand why the previous versions of the compiler are working without any problems and version 18.0.1 has problems in release mode with optimizations enabled. I attached another version of the project reproducing the same problem even if I removed the dependence from AM572X_PHYCORE_RDK.

Thank you and best regards,

I'd appreciate if we could get this test case ...

Hello

Sorry again for delay but I'm very busy in this period: I created a new project for evmAM572x and I added a custom platform I'm using to be able to link with bspCommonBIOS_m4-cfg: the linking problem arises as soon as you try to compile in Release mode with the latest version of ARM compiler (ver 18.1.1 LTS but the problem was present in the previous version too 18.1.0). As already stated, the problem is not present in version 17.x.x  of the compiler.
